Merry Christmas!

Wow, finally Christmas has come and gone. All the build up and anticipation and now its over.

Well that's okay because this Christmas was amazing! Not only the actually day but the whole season. It started off with my grad ring annnddd grad pics.

All the pictures, except for my grad one.. duuhhh. were taken with my neww digital camera that i got for Christmas, along with my new video ipod. Purchased just for my Europe trip! I got so many things for that trip including a fold up travel bad from Santa, a travel blow dryer anddd some Euros from my auntie Linda and uncle Barry and a bunch of stuff for my camera and ipod from my mom and dad!

Christmas day was spent and my Auntie Linda's & Uncle Barry's house with the whole family and we had so many laughs as always, mostly courtesy of my mom.. and my dad even made a guest appearance.. and no Ben he wasn't an actor! It was such a great day, watching Jonah open his presents with his uncle rob there, and having it be Logan's first Christmas it was a perfect day!

oh how we love these children!

Now I'm in grande prairie for the next few days to visit family here till the 1st, I've seen a movie everyday since I've been here.. the new Rocky movie with my cousin and his friend, The pursuit of happiness with Ian and megann and black christmas with Kim and her boyfriend! not much else to do here but movies haha. we went tobogganing last night, but i bruised my tail bone anndd my cousin got a tattoo.. the creepy old tattoo artist wanted to tattoo me but sadly i was too young.. he told me to come visit him once I'm 18... but unfortunately for him i will never come see him.

well that's all I'll leave you all with a picture of Travis's tattoo. It, combined with his already existing one, means might in Chinese

I hope everyone had a merry Christmas and a happy new year in 2007!

Finally!

finalllyy! One of the first big parts of my final year of highschool has arrived! tThis morning my dad and i picked up my grad rinngg!
It looks exactly like the picture except it has my birthstone (amythest) and on the sides has
JPHS and 2007 engraved in the sides, with my name on the inside.
I love it, im so excited to wear it, now all i'm waiting for is my grad photos!

Cant Waitt

120 days till europppe!

Family

I am greatly blessed to have such an amazing family that include 3 young one's. Jonah Perry,Logan Perry & now as of today Abigail Gallimore. And even though I'm not directly an aunt I love them all and they are the most amazing children ever. They are all greatly loved and have amazing parents to top it off. I couldn't ask for anything better in two nephews and now a niece!

Congratulations!

Congratulations to Chrissy and Brian on the birth of

Abigail Anne Gallimore

born at 12:07 am.

I'm so happy that you are all healthy and happy! she is such a beautiful girl. I cant wait to watch her grow up! you will both be amazing parents!

eye-openerr.

so its been a whille...

this weekend i went to the NAIT open house. i can't believe it.

this weekend has really opened up my eyes. im getting ready to apply

for post secondary.. i can't believe it. i saw my dads friend don this weekend for the

first time since i was 13. and it really opened my eyes to how much has changed since then then i have my liscence, im graduating this year, my family has grown larger, i have 2 beautiful nephews, an amazing church family who i love, im in fuel, And now am getting ready to plan my future.

i found out that getting into this program is going to be harder than expected. If you don't know, im applying into the Radio Broadcasting program at NAIT. This is joined for the first semester with the television program. And so every semester intake, which is September and January 30 people are selected, 12 radio & 18 T.v out of 120 applicants for september and 50 in january. that kinda burst my bubble, i also foind out that i need at 75%+ avg in my grade 12 classes. which is kinda bad considering my avg's aren't usually that good.. and ive already taken chem 30 and got 66%.. im also in english 30-2 which also means that i have to upgrade my english to 30-1, so there goes my semester off, im planning to upgrade at NAIT so that wont be so bad, and i dont have to write another diploma, heckkk yes! and i'd start that in september and then start the course in january if i get accepted. since the program is incredibly competitive i have to do a career exploration, which means talking to 3 people in the industry and ask them questions about the job, and then write an essay. so thats the next step. I also found out that i can take a night course for 2 months called RTA, its offered every wednesday, from 7pm-10pm. This mark can replace my chem 30 mark. and hopefully if they see how much i really want to be in this field than it will give me and upper hand on getting accepted. Now i just have to focus on keeping my social and math marks up.. that will be a challenge.

well thats all for noww, update soon

and a trip to westedd. there was also my dashboard concert which was amazing.
and then it was off to manitoba for a week and abit with my mom and bree.
that was interestinng. kinda of boring staying in a town of 200 with no one over
the age of 10 or under 30. but it was nice seeing my grandparents and escaping the city.
on the way home we stayed in a spa resort in moose jaw and experienced the craziest lightning ever, we also stoped in lloyd to visit brees nephew parker who is adorable.
the next weeked i drove to camp to visit courtney and that was interesting, it was my first
taste of real highway driving and i have to say i enjoyed it!
the heat was unbelieveableee! i am so thankful for air conditioning. k-days or capital ex was next.
and that was good. not as good as past years but i always have so much funn there. we ended up getting
soaked at the end of the night but all-in-all it was good.
noww comes august whcih starts off with 2 weeks at PLC which i am very excited forr.
then camping and then back to school for grade 12...

Ahhhh! so i just got home from banff yesterday and it was beyond amazing. It was completely perfect. The hotel i was at (The Inns Of Banff) was right at the entrance of banff and there was mountains everywhere.. i know duuh of course there was.. you were in banff. But I hadn't been to the mountains in so long that i forgot how magnificicant they truley are. While i was there we also went to the Upper Banff Hot Springs and wooowww! i loved it there.. it was raining at first which is perfect hot springs weather, and as we were sitting there the sky just parted and there were the mountains.. and ahhh! i know my love is all for the mountains. but i mean c'mon look at them.. it was truly awesome.
And then we went bowling here...
ahh the Banff Springs Hotel.
I have officially decided that i want to live there.. or at least get married
aha it is the most beautiful place i think ive ever seen and they have a bowling alley there. Thats pretty sweet;; well enough about my trip. As you can tell i had a great time. But im happy to be home

be associated
with...

Stained Glass Masquerade

So at fuel on saturday

megan&ian did a special music call

Stained Glass Masquerade

By Casting Crowns

and i feel in love with the song.

the words are amaizng

and have such an awesome message.

so i thought id share it

Is there anyone that fails

Is there anyone that falls

Am I the only one in church today feelin’ so small

Cause when I take a look around

Everybody seems so strong

I know they’ll soon discover

That I don’t belong

So I tuck it all away, like everything’s okay

If I make them all believe it, maybe I’ll believe it too

So with a painted grin, I play the heart again

So everyone will see me the way that I see them

Are we happy plastic people

Under shiny plastic steeples

With walls around our weakness

And smiles to hide our pain

But if the invitation’s open

To every heart that has been broken

Maybe then we close the curtain

On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone who’s been there

Are there any hands to raise

Am I the only one who’s tradedIn the altar for a stage

The performance is convincing

And we know every line by heart

Only when no one is watching

Can we really fall apart

But would it set me free

If I dared to let you see

The truth behind the person

That you imagine me to be

Would your arms be open

Or would you walk away

Would the love of Jesus

Be enough to make you stay

Phantom
